Garlic Butter Herb Chicken Tenders

Instructions

Season and Cook the Chicken:

1. Season the chicken tenders with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.

2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

2. Once the butter melts, stir in the minced garlic and cook until fragrant (about 30 seconds).

3. Add the fresh herbs (parsley, thyme, and oregano) and stir to combine.

4. Squeeze in the lemon juice and stir.

Combine:

1. Return the cooked chicken tenders to the skillet.

2. Toss the tenders in the garlic butter herb sauce until fully coated and warmed through.
